UKULELE CATCH-UP

WHAT A WEEK END this has been.  I have not posted a blog for a few days and if you wonder why, google "Fairhaven.com"  There are a dozen photos to view of what has occupied my attention for the last few days.   
In the midst of it all was our first BUG , {Bellingham Ukulele Group} meeting of the coming years.  As always, BUG begins with a beginner's lesson, this time taught by our incomparable teacher Gail McDonald.

Then at 3;00 the regulars arrive and the jam begins.  I would guess there were 70 folks playing, all eager to get back at it after a busy summer.

Here is a little video taken when Felix borrowed my 'DOUBLEY'  and took it up front to play,  I love it when he does that and I also enjoyed blaying my new two string bass, but from the back of the hall.  Thanks Felix, borrow it any time.  We had a really fun Jam-the next one is Saturday Oct 4.  Come if you can

Today I met some nice folks , Bob and Cathy, who came up from Anacortes to look at my ukes.  They each left with a Griffin instrument.  Cathy, a concert Pinecone and Bob with one of the banjo ukuleles.  We had a grand visit and they left with smiles on their faces.
